с английским эквиваленты ТЕКСТ Bright, vibrant flowers seem to be popular with people today. More modern flowers such as lilies are now being combined with old favourites like the Irish and Chrysanthemum. The tulip is another very popular flower. In Australia the tulip is in season from April until September or October.

Bright yellows, oranges and reds are often put together in baskets, bowls and bouquets. Green foliage such as Eucalyptus leaves is added to break up the color.

The most popular type of flower arrangement is the bouquet. They are hand-held and less expensive than arrangements in baskets and bowls. There can be a variety of flowers in a bouquet or just one type of flower.

Australians usually send flowers for special occasions, such as, the birth of a baby, weddings, birthdays, and funerals. Australia has a special day called “Daffodil Day” on the 1st of September. On this day it is a tradition to buy a bunch of daffodils as a sign of respect for cancer sufferers. All proceeds from sales that day go towards cancer research

A crossword puzzle is a game of words where the player is given a hint and the number of letters. The player then fills in a grid of boxes by finding the right words. Liverpool journalist, Arthur Wynne invented the first crossword puzzle.Arthur WynneArthur Wynne was born on June 22, 1871 in Liverpool, England. He immigrated to the United States at the age of nineteen. He first lived in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and worked for the Pittsburgh Press newspaper. An interesting side-note, was that Wynne also played violin in the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra.Later, Arthur Wynne moved to Cedar Grove, New Jersey and started working for a New York City based newspaper called the New York World. He wrote the first crossword puzzle for the New York World, published on Sunday, December 21, 1913. The editor had asked Wynne to invent a new game for the paper's Sunday entertainment section.View a copy of Arthur Wynne's first crossword puzzleWord-Cross to Cross-Word to CrosswordArthur Wynne's first crossword puzzle was initially called word-cross and was diamond-shaped. The name later switched to cross-word, and then as a result of an accidental typo the hyphen was dropped and the name became crossword.Wynne based his crossword puzzle on a similar but much older game played in ancient Pompeii that translated from Latin to English was called Magic Squares. In Magic Squares, the player is given a group of words and has to arrange them on a grid so that the words read the same way across and down. A crossword puzzle is very similar, except instead of being given the words the player is given clues.Arthur Wynne added other innovations to the crossword puzzle. While the first puzzle wasdiamond-shaped, he later invented horizontal and vertical shaped puzzles; and Wynne invented the use of adding blank black squares to a crossword puzzle.The crossword puzzle in a British publication was published in Pearson's Magazine in February 1922. The first New York Times crossword was published on February 1 1930.First Book of Crossword PuzzlesAccording to the Guinness Book of Records, the first collection of crossword puzzles was published in the USA in 1924. Called The Cross Word Puzzle Book it was the first publication by a new partnership formed by Dick Simon and Lincoln Schuster. The book, a compilation of crossword puzzles from the newspaper New York World, was an instant success and helped to establish publishing giant Simon & Schuster, who continue to produce crossword books to this day.

Лето – самая замечательная пора. Я всегда очень жду летних каникул. Люблю играть в футбол, купаться в реке, ходить в лес, путешествовать. Лето – самое подходящее время года для всего этого. Этим летом я много занимался спортом – играл в футбол на школьном стадионе почти каждый день. Летом я не только гулял, купался и загорал. Когда шел дождь, я читал свои любимые книги. Одна из них – «Белый клык» Джека Лондона. Она мне очень понравилась, и я хочу рассказать о ней. Главный герой – Белый Клык – собака-волк, очень преданный и справедливый на большую и искреннюю привязанность. Этих качеств сейчас очень не хватает многим людям. Я хотел бы иметь такого четвероного друга, как Белый Клык. Я с нетерпением буду ждать следующего лета!

Объяснение:

Summer is the most wonderful time. I am always looking forward to the summer holidays. I like to play football, swim in the river, go to the forest, travel. Summer is the best time of the year for all this. This summer I did a lot of sports - I played football at the school stadium almost every day. In the summer I not only walked, bathed and sunbathed. When it rained, I read my favorite books. One of them is Jack London's White Fang. I really liked her, and I want to talk about her. The main character is White Fang - a wolf dog, very faithful and fair, capable of great and sincere affection. These qualities are now very lacking for many people. I would like to have such a fourth friend as White Fang. I look forward to next summer!
